If you read this blog for more than two seconds, it’s clear that I *love* wedding dresses and outfits! How creativity and ritual come together in a wedding dress makes my heart flutter. But one aspect of planning my wedding that didn’t meet the fairy tale ideal was wedding dress shopping.
It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t 100% the magical experience I dreamt of. I’m on the edge of plus size, so I’d often have to try on too small sample size dresses and grimace in the mirror. More than one salesperson said something like, “Oh don’t worry about how it fits, that’s just the sample size.”
Between comments like that, not carrying the sample sizes needed to fit the average American woman who wears a larger size than I do, and dress prices passed to you face down like they’re NSFW, the shopping process often felt impersonal, inconsiderate, and outdated.
Lyra Vega Bridal was founded in 2016 to counter traditional dress shopping and is dedicated to creating a more personalized, positive experience for today’s brides.
LVB’s dresses combine boho, modern, and romantic elements into versatile dresses with wide appeal. I love how the Deb dress above combines boho bell sleeves and classic lace with a breathtaking off-the-shoulder mermaid gown!
LVB offers transparent, affordable pricing on made-to-measure gowns you can order online. Their highest price point is $995!
Plus, there are no hidden fees and you get free shipping for all gowns!
